[QUOTE="Blwebster, post: 1359923, member: 82312"] Agreed. But with the 7mm or .270 the while shots pencil through with the 130 or 140 grain Noslers, many times a rib gets slapped hard enough to create a long hole in the hide so you have to sew those up which is always a pain. At least if using your lighter .22 or .17 caliber rifles that is not so much an issue, which is my reason for the use of the .22-250 (all I had then) with the Sierra Matchkings. Way back then there were none of the newer varmint bullets you are talking about and I do not bother with coyotes much these days, but concentrate on getting my share of wolf pelts and for them I use a .308 with Sierra 110 grain hollow points. The coyotes I have taken with those were mostly head shots at closer ranges while coming in to a call in brushy areas. [/QUOTE]
